Media determines what's "important".. Benghazzzzzi is no longer a biggie....not when there are tearful people to interview, and poignant music to play behind the interviews...and rubble to film..

If things were going as they are now and the president was a puke they'd be talking about building a big monument to him. Shallow bunch is all I can say.
We have a bunch of shallow ones here on our board too.

many of the problems we have will sort themselves out. But with constant lying and covering up this cannot happen. And I don't mean Fox only - at least their agenda is out there and clear, the others are slimey undercover fucks.
